Brief Summary
In the prevention of thrombosis related to catheter placement it is important to have a right position of the catheter tip. Therefor we want to assess which technique is the most successful in the placing of a PICC.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of participants with correct placement in the superior caval vein during PICC insertion, after either ECG or ultrasound guided insertion
The aim of the study is a comparison between two techniques to control correct positioning of the PICC
Whitin 5 minutes after catheter-placement
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Duration of PICC-placement by ECG-guidance versus ultrasound-guidance
within 5 minutes
frequency of necessity of replacement after chest-x-ray control
1 day
Study Arms (2)
ECG-guided insertion of PICC
ACTIVE COMPARATORPlacement of the PICC (Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter ) ECG-guided insertion.
